Who did not use Sandbox before, please refer to official link and read a bit more. It is wonderful tool for installing, testing new things with MySQL. Especially if you have new MySQL release to test and want to install 3 or 5 instances, just use MySQL Sandbox and it will do this work for you.

In our condition, we have already compiled MySQL with our plugin. So we have source folder in -> /home/sh/Sandboxes/mysql-group-replication-0.5.0-dmr/BIN

With MySQL Sandbox there is a wonderful tool, named make_sandbox_from_source.
Let’s see options available with this tool:

sh@shrzayev:~$ make_sandbox_from_source --help
The MySQL Sandbox, version 3.1.00
(C) 2006-2015 Giuseppe Maxia
*** sandbox_type missing
Syntax: /usr/local/bin/make_sandbox_from_source source_directory sandbox_type [options]
source directory is where you have successfully
run ./configure && make
sandbox_type is one of
single
replication
circular
multiple
options is anything that is needed by the sandbox
application of your choice

We want to test Group Replication plugin, so we need multiple option it will install 3 nodes of same version of MySQL by default. So after running we will get on our hand 3 nodes of Group Replication enabled MySQL.
We must just specify the source folder as follows:

There is a mysql-server.build folder which we will append and run again:

sh@shrzayev:~$ make_sandbox_from_source /home/sh/Sandboxes/mysql-group-replication-0.5.0-dmr/BIN/BUILD/mysql-server.build/ multiple
can't find a version in Makefile

Error has changed -> can’t find a version in Makefile
After searching i found a BUG report(LP BUG 853764) related to this issue and found a workaround. We should add MYSQL_NO_DASH_VERSION option in Makefile:

We have our plugin in plugin directory.
In the subsequent topics i will talk about activating and using group replication plugin. Again, we are using Ubuntu 14.04 with MySQL 5.7.8-rc2 and mysql-group-replication-0.5.0-dmr.
